Think Big, Say Little


Okay, so, on to my first ever contest!!

Lately I have been thinking about a lot of what if's.

So, here's the thing;

Write me a poem inspired by one of the following prompts:

WHAT IF....

1) Love could be measured in litres.

2) Karma was instant.

3) Dragons lived in Wales.

4) Hate was a deadly poison.

5) Time was recorded in seconds only.


Write anything you like, any topic, any style!

I'm a sucker for rhyme, but mostly love great imaginative pieces and vivid language.

Rules:

No sticky caps, please spell check, no more than twenty lines please and place the chosen prompt in the author comments so I know what it is!


Good luck.
